Good Books, Unique Gifts, and New Opportunities at your Fingertips<\/h1>\n

Welcome to our first book fair event!<\/p>\n

Behind Our Eyes, an organization of writers with disabilities, held its first book fair and two-hundred-seventy-third recorded conference call attended by nine presenters and many Behind Our Eyes member listeners. Bonnie Blose and Marilyn Brandt Smith hosted this two-hour event.<\/p>\n

A brief introduction to the focus and activities of the organization was followed by a parade of books: novels, memoirs of personal challenge, writings of the holiday season, adventures and essays with agendas, and a sure-to-be-classic disability awareness book written to assist blind and visually impaired consumers in navigating the healthcare system.<\/p>\n

Fifteen books were presented by their nine authors.<\/p>\n
